diverse books tag

Ok I’m doing this for books that I haven’t read, but I WILL READ in 2016. I’m thinking that I might go back to edit this after I’ve read each book and add a link to my review, just to make sure that I do get around to all of them.

Lol I wasn’t tagged but whatever.

Find a book starring a lesbian character.

Borderlands/La Frontera by Gloria Anzaldua. I was supposed to read this for university this year, but I didn’t have time.

I’m not huge on science-fiction/fantasy so I’ve had to be a bit more creative with this one! I’ve chosen Death by Water by Kenzaburo Oe – while not directly SF/F it does have elements of myth and fantasy in it, which is the closest I’m going to get, I think!

Find a book set in (or about) any country in Africa.

Purple Hibiscus by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie because WHY HAVEN’T I READ THIS ALREADY?!
